I couldn't tell you what I was doing on many days when I was in High School. But, thanks to my Mother saving this newspaper clipping, I can tell you what I was doing on 20 March, 1975. Yes, that is me, not Gregg Stefanchick tagging out Craig Coward. Gregg was my best friend and Shortstop, I played Second Base. We all got quite a laugh when we read the photo caption. Not only did I tag out Craig on a perfect throw from Ronnie Reaves, but Craig never even made it to the bag. I have the scars to prove it. I had to leave the game with my wrist torn open in two places. Gregg carried me to the hospital and afterwards we headed off to the beach on spring break.
Oh did I mention, I love baseball!!!
Happy first day of Spring!!
